I have a microwave cookbook that has some recipes for making liqueurs and things. Here is one that I have tried... I'll let you know in a month how it tastes ;) By the way, I was thinking of making some bottles of this type of thing as Christmas gifts. ANyone else have any recipes for homemade liqueurs?
